teufelsberg listening station
It was a busy week in Berlin but one of the nice surprises was a visit to Teufelsberg, a former NSA ‘listening station’ that has been abandoned since the wall came down. This small complex of buildings sits on top of an artificial mountain of rubble left over from the second world war. A group [...]

Istanbul soundwalks
On a recent visit to Istanbul I recorded several ’soundwalks’ through the cityscape. The recordings were made with a discreet pair of self-made binaural mics (panasonic wm-61a capsules) on a Sony PCM-D50. What becomes clear is that moving through space (as opposed to a stationary recording position) reveals just how diverse the spaces are in [...]

tape, wind and wire soundmix #1
New video up. This is a straight forward sound mix made in my backyard using both live mics and contact mics. No post-processing or composing was done. A higher quality version is available on my Vimeo page. The video was from hand held material recorded on a panasonic digital camera.

formica aquilonia
Formica aquilonia or Red Wood Ant is a species of ant commonly found in the area where I live. The ant colonies are easily recognizable by the large mounds that they build out of debris from the pine forests they inhabit. The mounds also tend to be clustered together. I’m not sure what is the [...]

subterranean soviet silos
I finally managed to visit a curious location in a forest in south Estonia and discovered that it indeed was one of the former soviet nuclear missile silos. As I’ve seen, most missile bases were mobile launching pads for missiles that were stored on trucks in bunkers. In this location the missiles were actually stored [...]

urban exploring: riga power station
While visiting Riga this past weekend we were able to gain access (officially) to the old power station in Riga. The power station, which generated heat for the city, ceased operations in 2003 and is slowly undergoing a process of transformation, yet the building and many old artifacts remain. There are plans to convert the [...]

hydrophone recording #2
This is a great hydrophone recording I made last week in the local Mooste lake. The sun was shining brightly so the plants were giving off plenty of oxygen. There are also a number of sqeaks and buzzes I cannot yet identify. The hydrophone is made by the avid field recordist Jez riley French who [...]

I developed and presented the first edition of the Resonance Ensemble project. This is a recording of the installation I made using local ceramic roof tiles (’stresniki’ in slovene).
Please [...]
